[Bug 260252] Re: When the display reoslution falls to 640x480 the "Monitor Resolution Settings" cannot be used to restore a higher resolution

2008-10-10 Thread JAdshead
This highly frustrating problem is equally present on Ubuntu 8.10
Intrepid.

Can a general solution be found - such as whenever the height of a window 
exceeds the height of the screen, automatically present a scrollbar to enable 
accessing the bottom part of the window?
(same thing applies for the width)

Nb. the command line workaround that got me out of this trap was:
  xrandr -s 800x600

(another related Bug #8629)?

...by the way, you fall into this trap as easily as:
  * Open the 'Screen Resolution' dialog
  * Select 640x480
  * Click Apply
now you are stuck...

[Bug 69023] Re: ppscsi won't build with module-assistant under kernel 2.6.17-10-generic

2007-09-29 Thread JAdshead
Hi,
This bug is still outstanding after a whole year..
The ppscsi modules failed to compile and were unusable on 'edgy' and then 
'feisty'
and now the upcoming 'gutsy' too.
There are more errors under 'feisty' and 'gusty' due to further kernel internal 
api changes
in 2.6.20.
I have made a patch to fix this for these recent kernels and am trying to 
contact
the upstream source maintainer to get this incorporated.
The patch allows me to correctly use my HP Scanjet 5100c scanner.

- What needs to be done to get this fixed before the 'gutsy' release?

- Isn't there some kind of 'automated build tester' for the 'module-assistant' 
package
  such that if any of the source packages it controls fails to build then the 
whole
  package is flagged as needing attention?
  (just seems like a basic quality control issue to be continuously shipping 
packages
  that fail to build)

Jon

[Bug 44699] Re: CPU frequency scaling isnt workin

2007-03-16 Thread JAdshead
I have exactly the same problem.. under edgy (2.6.17-11-generic) and
under feisty (2.6.20-11-generic).

I know the 'powernow-k8' module used to successfully load on this same
CPU/Motherboard/BIOS (Athlon64 3000+ / MSI K8T Neo2 FIR) in an older
version of Ubuntu.. (I'm guessing that was breezy, but not 100% sure)..
so it's definitely a regression.

... ps. the edgy kernel was 'amd64' variety, the feisty kernel is 'x86' 
variety, both produce the same error:
powernow-k8: Found 1 AMD Athlon(tm) 64 Processor 3000+ processors (version 
2.00.00)
powernow-k8: BIOS error - no PSB or ACPI _PSS objects

[Bug 43066] Re: Window list behaves bad when panel is vertical.

2010-09-01 Thread JAdshead
This is also presents a big Ubuntu usability issue for me too.. I have
spent years placing the taskbar/window list on the left hand side in
Windows, where it works sensibly and flawlessly (makes it much easier to
work with a large number of open windows).. have never seen it work
under Ubuntu. Hate to say it, but it's the same old story, bug reports
for basic functionality issues that languish for years.. very off-
putting for newcomers to Ubuntu.
